I was enthusiasted to know about the security since nowadays we are in the era of electronic life experience and I asked them if in any case we lost our Pin/Password. They explained that customers can call their hotline and can reset the password, but with necessary basic requirements/questions to ensure the identity. A text message confirmation will be sent through our mobile phone that the PIN was reset successfully. And we have to create a new personal pin.
